Cartamundi

At Cartamundi, we're all united by our common belief that world is better with play. Play is what keeps us going, and it always has been our greatest motivation. That's why we live different, and play different. To us, it is not just an activity. It is a guiding mindset that reminds us to have fun, to be fair, to connect with people – across cultures and generations – and to embrace shared experiences. We are a worldwide leader in playing cards and in "play" solutions. Our owned brand portfolio includes a suite of heritage brands which go back as far as 1848, including global brands like Bicycle®, HRO®, Bee®, Copag®, Shuffle® and many locally loved brands. These brands combine craftsmanship with innovation as the basis for their continued relevance and positive contribution to the local communities that love and use these brands. At Cartamundi, we have significant expertise in printing; our presses have been running since 1765. Today, our company has become the largest playing cards and board game manufacturer in the world and the trusted partner of leading toy companies. We make well-known brands such as Monopoly®, Uno®, Magic: the Gathering®, Guess Who ®, Pokémon®, Trivial Pursuit® every day. As we look into the future and how entertainment evolves, we are bringing the digital world to the physical world and vice versa. We have a dedicated team of experts that is looking into future technologies, products, applications that can get our consumers and communities to truly live different and play different. We are still a family-owned company with headquarters in Belgium and have a global network of 16 manufacturing facilities, 6 design centres, 1 digital studio and 1 global R&D centre.
